After pitching no-hit hall for six innings, Tom Murphy was knocked out in the seventh, but the Angels held on to defeat the White Sox, 4-3, behind the relief work of Eddie Fisher. The Angels scored twice in the first inning and added their other pair in the sixth, with Murphy hitting a single to drive in what proved to be the winning run.
